The essence of this piece is freedom, how people live, but rarely uses the carrier of family to discuss.
And the discussion is very gentle, there is no fierce conflict, there is no life and death for you, and there is no need to follow me.
At the beginning of the film, what my father does has a tendency to be authoritarian. Much like the father in "You Should Be Like a Bird Flying to Your Mountain", he takes his own concept and cognition as the absolute right and asks the children to follow it. After looking at it, he finds that the two fathers have different patterns. A schizophrenic, relatively vulgar, splitting garbage for a living, purely resisting the government, and the father here is all-round, advocating knowledge, the children raised can speak six languages, can go to Harvard, the children can sing and dance, and the body is strong, The minds are more profound than those high school students who only know that they are addicted to video games, and they view society as human beings more free and equal, and their father has nurtured them well.
But the father's approach is still totalitarian. One is that the children have not been compared and have no right to choose, and it is still not right. Even if you give a good thing of the nectar and jade dew, you must let them have a comparison and voluntariness, otherwise it will be a forced irrigation "for your own good". The second is that they have not been exposed to the real world and have nowhere to place their needs and desires. This is reflected when the eldest son behaves strangely when he encounters the girl he likes.
There are too few people living freely and equally in the deep mountains, and my father only met my mother. People can be isolated, but the desires and needs of the flesh cannot be isolated, and they still have to contact the real world. This is an irreconcilable defect.
In the end, the director warmly asked the father to return to the real world and continue to insist on giving the children what he thinks is good, which is equivalent to letting the children not only touch what the father gives, but also touch the real world in parallel. In this way, the children have compared, at least With autonomy. This is fair. Defects are resolved.
Some critics think it's a compromise, I think it's a more peaceful approach. I give it to you and you want you to take it, you don't want it, I don't force it.
Having said that, there are indeed all kinds of problems in the real world, consumerism, addiction, totalitarianism, bullying, exploitation, deception, but at the same time, there are good, brilliant art, convenient cooperation, and you can't just throw them all out of fear. Lost.
The real world is really dangerous. If this movie doesn't move towards warmth, it is very likely that the father will not let the child leave. One of the sons directly stabbed the father with a knife. The father-in-law and son-in-law fought violently. , was mocked and injured, one of her daughters was paralyzed or died when she fell from the roof, and none of that happened. This movie is so heartwarming. Some people say that it is small because of these warmth, but I think that there is so much tragic in reality, so don't be bloody in the movie.
